During the holidays many of us are swept up in a whirlwind of activities including trimming trees, opening presents and spending time with friends and loved ones. Once the twinkly lights are extinguished, the gifts are distributed and the kids go to sleep with full bellies and warm hearts, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the year that’s passed and make resolutions for the upcoming year." />

During the holidays many of us are swept up in a whirlwind of activities
including trimming trees, opening presents and spending time with friends and
loved ones. Once the twinkly lights are extinguished, the gifts are distributed
and the kids go to sleep with full bellies and warm hearts, it’s the perfect
time to reflect on the year that’s passed and make resolutions for the upcoming
year.

As I look back on 2012, I feel the need to reiterate how truly honored and
grateful I feel to be a part of a company devoted to the health and well-being
of companion animals. Our products speak for themselves but they all include one
important ingredient you won’t find on the label – heart. From our customer
service agents to our management team to our dedicated Field Representatives,
everyone here at Life’s Abundance plays a part in fulfilling our mission … to
help dogs and cats lead longer, healthier and happier lives. More...

Gathering your family together for a delicious, festive feast is a holiday tradition.

Sometimes just meeting the basic necessities can be the greatest gift of all.

Along with a safe place to live, a reliable source of food is the most vital of
needs. Unfortunately, too many in this country live with food insecurity, going
day-to-day without knowing when – or if – their next meal will come.

In times of hardship, individuals step forward to lend a helping hand. No other
small group of dedicated people is more devoted to helping their neighbors than
Community Sharing. It’s our foundation’s great pleasure to assist them in
achieving their goals. More...

No matter how much we adore our companion animals, there’s no denying that they come with responsibilities. Keeping your dog’s coat clean not only helps to support skin health, a luxurious, odor-free coat can actually improve your quality of life, too.

Not all of us are able to get to our professional groomer every time we really need to, so this episode of Pet Talk is all about techniques to wash your dog’s coat at home … in between regular groomer visits.

With help from her beautiful, blond assistant, Alma, Dr. Sarah offers a quick overview of the basics of home bathing, to leave your dog’s coat lustrous, clean and smelling spectacular.
